- The main authors of the SFL were:
Pieter Hintjens <ph@imatix.com>,
Pascal Antonnaux <pascal@imatix.com>,
Jonathan Schultz <jonathan@imatix.com>, and
Ewen McNeill <ewen@imatix.com>.
Scott Beasley <jscottb@InfoAve.Com>
- Many dozens of people helped make the SFL a great library, and
we've stopped trying to list them all. You know who you are, and
we thank you.
- The xstrcat() function was based on a snippet from Dr Dobb's
Journal, Nov 1992, p. 155.
- The strhash() function was based on an article in Dr Dobb's
Journal, Apr 1996, p. 26. The original algorithm was by Peter
Weinberger.
- The strmatch() function was based on an algorithm by Leif
Svalgaard <leif@ibm.net>.
- The LZ compression functions were based on work by Kurt Haenen
<ghgaea8@blekul11>.
- The symbol table functions were based on code provided with
MKS Lex and Yacc for MS-DOS.
- The socket i/o functions were originally based on the book
"Internetworking With TCP/IP Volume III: Client-Server Programming
And Applications BSD Socket Version" by Douglas E. Comer and David
L. Stevens, published 1993 by Prentice-Hall Inc. ISBN
0-13-020272-X
- The encryption functions were based on the cryptosystem
library by Andrew Brown <asb@cs.nott.ac.uk>.
- The date_to_days() and days_to_date() functions were based on
work by Robert G. Tantzen (Collected Algorithms of The CACM number
199), translated into C by Nat Howard.
- The memfind() function was based on work by R. Boyer and S.
Moore, CACM 20 762-72, with improvements by R. N. Horspool, A.
Hume, and D. M. Sunday.
- The point-in-shape functions were based on code in the NCSA
HTTPd server.
- The MIME encoding/decoding functions were based on RFC 1123
and RFC 1521.
- The UNIX 'c' script contains code taken from the libwww
installation script.
